Daily mobility has been shown to contribute the wellbeing of older adults, as it promotes healthy and independent living. However, very little is known about how complex relationships between locations, geographic environments daily relate wellbeing. In current paper, we rely on concept ‘motility’– defined potential mobility– ‘movement’– actual take a step forwards in disentangling relationship We further examine both motility movement two complementary definitions wellbeing: hedonic...
An evidential neural network (ENN) for predicting individual travel mode is presented. This model can be used to support management decision making and build predictions under uncertainty related changes in people's behavior, the economic context, or environment policy. The presented uses individuals’ characteristics, transportation specifications, data places of work residence. set analyzed was taken from a survey conducted 2007 contains information on daily mobility (e.g., home work)...
Given the challenges of aging populations, calls have been issued for more sustainable urban re-development and implementation local solutions to address global environmental healthy issues. However, few studies considered older adults' daily mobility better understand how built social environments may contribute aging. Meanwhile, wearable sensors interactive map-based applications offer novel means gathering information on people's mobility, levels physical activity, or network structure....
Abstract Background Policymakers need accurate data to develop efficient interventions promote transport physical activity. Given the imprecise assessment of activity in trips, our aim was illustrate novel advances measurement walking including trips incorporating non-walking modes. Methods We used 285 participants (RECORD MultiSensor Study, 2013–2015, Paris region) who carried GPS receivers and accelerometers over 7 days underwent a phone-administered web mobility survey on basis...
One of the determinants travel satisfaction is 'dissonance', or difference between someone's actual and their preferred ideal travel. Previous studies never questioned use as a reference point to assess satisfaction. We how what extent changes in commute dissonance, among other determinants, affect by applying prospect theory with alternative points. Results indicate that negative dissonant commuters (i.e., time > ideal) are significantly less satisfied commute, but opposite does not hold....
Mobility is a global megatrend in our contemporary world as people are constantly crossing nation-state borders for migration, tourism, work and due to mobile transnational lives. Cross-border practices contribute (re)produce functional border regions between different countries. The current amount of information on the geographies cross-border mobilities people, creation how these change over time inadequate. As phenomena fragile disruptions prone 'rebordering' times emergency, we lack...
This paper stresses the lack of attention paid to geographical definitions cities in LUTI models as one key detrimental aspect transferring and generalising results. First, argumentation develops from a meta-analysis peer-reviewed publications about applications European cities. We show that most authors do not assess findings against potential biases. Second, theoretical simulations are conducted with UrbanSim applied synthetic urban area. By varying limits system population endowments, our...
Numerous studies have found that travel mode choice is related to mode-specific attitudes as well travel-related satisfaction. While choosing a congruent with towards (i.e., consonance) brings about satisfaction, satisfaction can result in the of which not necessarily consistent (all) dissonance). However, few analyzed extent consonance and dissonance affect or are affected by overall This paper aims at understanding whether respondents positive attitude certain will actually use mode,...
While attention has been paid to travel satisfaction studies during the last decade, less research investigated relationship between influence of a sense place – and more particularly psycho-environmental concepts workplace attachment commuting satisfaction. Using retrospective survey, this paper focuses on relocation within city Montréal (Canada); McGill University Healthcare Centre. It examines motivations barriers involved in evolution characteristics, using theoretical framework mobility...
Based on specific characteristics of mobility, the cross-border commuter status still has some ambiguities, whether in legal, geographic, economic or more generally social cultural terms. This paper aims at providing theoretical advancement to this especially through transfer a model using cross-scale analysis based two complementary concepts. The first corresponds ‘border confirming’ and is measured macro level, including differentials both sides border. second concept called transcending’...
In this study, we apply a latent class choice modelling approach to the employees of European Investment Bank and Court Justice Union in Luxembourg investigate commuting mode behaviour by incorporating individual preference heterogeneity. We found two-segment differentiation determined their household locations, attitudes towards transport modes as well socio-demographic characteristics. Validity overall goodness-of-fit are compared with conditional multinomial Logit model. The empirical...
Abstract Reuse of wastewater through a combination advanced treatment (AWT) and managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is an important water management option. As integral part any AWT‐MAR system, the geochemical compatibility recharged with targeted must be assessed to avoid groundwater quality deterioration. Although short‐term field experiments may uncover potentially concerning sediment‐water disequilibria, analysis often required understand long‐term impacts large‐scale MAR. Here, we develop...
This paper focuses on a particular form of high mobility, namely the long journeys to work generated by cross-border job market. More precisely, it studies impact such behaviors well-being analyzing relationships between mode choice, transport-related attitudes, socio-demographic and spatial attributes, level satisfaction in context commutes Luxembourg. The statistical modelling is rooted conceptual framework that emphasizes mutual dependencies satisfaction. Based survey among long-distance...
We investigate the travel mode choice behaviour of both resident and cross-border workers in Luxembourg. Two categories are considered: sustainable (public transport) unsustainable (single occupancy car use), which depend on a large set spatial sociodemographic variables. In particular, we determine whether how borders four countries involved (Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Germany) affect this choice. The results classical binary logistic regression model show that significant variables area...
The number of cross-border workers in Luxembourg has steadily increased over the last 30 years. In collective imagination these come to Grand Duchy just work. This paper challenges this representation by measuring functional integration Luxembourg. Using some useful tools linked field Time Geography, it is possible analyze their activity spaces according spatial and temporal organization daily activities trip chains. distribution on both sides border provide methodological analytical support...
Evidence on the influence of built environments sedentary behaviors remains unclear and is often contradictory. The main limitations encompass use self-reported proxies time (ST), scarce consideration plurality behaviors, environmental exposures limited to residential neighborhood. We investigated relationships between GPS-based activity space measures accelerometer-based ST measured in total, at place residence, all locations, during trips.This study part CURHA project, based 471 older...
